SMC said the one-day festival is open to the public from 10 am to 4 pm and aims to raise awareness on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease, while encouraging early detection and healthier lifestyle choices.
With the theme “Every Move Matters, Every Step Counts Against NCDs”, the festival will feature preventive healthcare through a dynamic blend of interactive exhibits, complimentary screenings and engaging family-friendly activities.
“Festivalgoers can benefit from a range of free basic health checks, including blood glucose tests, body composition analysis and urine tests.
“These screenings aim to help attendees gain greater awareness of their current health status and encourage follow-up consultations, where necessary,” it said in a statement.
It added that one of the festival’s standout attractions is the “Jantungku” Walkthrough Heart Exhibit, offering a close-up view at the human heart to help visitors understand how cardiovascular health is affected by everyday lifestyle choices.
“Beyond the screenings and exhibits, the festival also promises a day of light-hearted fun and discovery. Game stations and flash quiz challenges will offer opportunities for all ages to learn about healthy living.
“Visitors can also browse the Health Marketplace, showcasing wellness brands, health-centric products and nourishing food options,” it said.
SMC said the Life Moves Festival is part of its continuous commitment to supporting national public health goals, promoting informed health decisions and encouraging sustainable behavioural change through education and community engagement.
In recognition of its unwavering pursuit of clinical excellence, SMC was named Malaysia’s top hospital and ranked among the world’s top 250 hospitals in Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals for both 2024 and 2025. — BERNAMA
